[movie review]      Mixed Reviews       F      24th Day (2004)      "An ethically repugnant, relentlessly monotonous chamber drama that manages the difficult trick of boring and irritating its viewers simultaneously." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      25th Hour (2002)      "How can so much talent be so utterly, utterly wasted on this weak material?" [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      About Schmidt (2002)      "A lazy effort peppered only sparingly with inspiration." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Adaptation (2002)      "Kaufman's script is wildly imaginative but only intermittently entertaining, dredging up troubling questions about artistic responsibility that he ultimately doesn't answer." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       D      Adored - Diary of a Porn Star (2004)      "An unfortunate exercise in ego run amok, coupled with inexperience and ineptitude." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       --      The Adventures of Felix (2001)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C-      The Alamo (2004)      "As exciting as a big, flat cyclorama exhibit at your local historical society. " [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      All About My Mother (1999)      "Both an expansion of Almodovar's famous candy-colored vision and a maturation of his ingenious directorial style." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A-      All the Pretty Horses (2000)      "Part elegy, part romance, and part myth, it's a sweeping paean to the lost West, a dreamy chronicling of the end of an age." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B      America Brown (2005)      "The rites of passage into adulthood have rarely been so textured." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      American Psycho (2000)      "Succeeds in entertaining the audience, but diminishes the overall power of the social critique Ellis had in mind." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B+      The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004)      "A moving, poignant parable of another America, where the dreams aren't quite so rosy." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Baadasssss! (2004)      "While Mario Van Peebles' gauzy adoration for his father causes BAADASSSSS! to be less defined than it should be, the obvious affection makes the uneven film heartfelt." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      Bad Education (2004)      "Even when he's paying homage to other great filmmakers, it still remains an indisputably Almodovar experience." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      Bad Guy (2001)      "Desire, violence, revenge, and obsession play out against a map of sex and love." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      The Barbarian Invasions (2003)      "One feels awestruck by Arcand's accomplishment: starkly aware of life's beauty, its fragility, and the undeniable truth that friends, lovers, and family are what makes us who we are." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C-      The Baxter (2005)      "It argues, ironically, that pretty people should only end up with pretty people, and the best we can do is hope that the temp with bad hair will find us equally nerd-hot." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B+      Bear Cub (2004)      "A complex, finely woven tale of nontraditional family. Such enjoyments are far too rare." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      Before Night Falls (2000)      "Un cri de coeur...Julian Schnabel's latest work can only be described as one of those soul-stirring cries." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A-      Before Sunset (2004)      "Before Sunset has an immediacy that makes other movies feel comatose." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      Being Julia (2004)      "If A Room with a View looked inside the repressed passions of its characters, Being Julia seems content to just put a frame around them and call it a day." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C+      Beyond the Sea (2004)      "A vain attempt not only to restore Darin's place in history, but to improve upon it... Colick's underdeveloped screenplay has trouble placing Darin's life onto a heroic scale." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      Big Fish (2003)      "The whimsy feels so forced, so labored, so (dare I say it) dull...Big Fish ends up being a film about magic that holds little magic of its own." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      Black Hawk Down (2001)      "Dramatically taught, crisply shot and vibrantly visualized, this film deserves a place in the war film pantheon." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       D+      The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi/Sonatine (2004)      "Zatoichi finds a legacy diminished by his new, updated masters. " [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Boiler Room (2000)      "The New York Stock Exchange gets a healthy dose of Gen-X amorality, but in the end, the more things change, the more things stay the same." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Bon Voyage (2004)      "Posh, stylish, and with very little going on in its head, Bon Voyage is neither as dizzying nor as entertaining as it could be." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C-      Bored in Brno (2003)      "Subtitled "a comedy about defying fate," Bored in Brno really should have spent more time trying to defy conventionality. " [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B+      The Bourne Identity (2002)      "Aspires to be both a whammo action blockbuster and an intelligent think piece...a delicate balance for any film to pull off." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B+      The Bourne Supremacy (2004)      "A buffed-up, kick-a** version of our modern collective consciousness." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A+      Bowling for Columbine (2002)      "The film's strength isn't in its details, but in the larger picture it paints - of a culture in conflict with itself, with the thin veneer of nationalism that covers our deepest, media-soaked fears." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       10/10      Boys Don't Cry (1999)      "Hilary Swank is the find of the year!" [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       7/10      Breakfast of Champions (1999)      "Breakfast of Champions is a feast for the imagination, not the screen." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B      Breakfast on Pluto (2005)      "Effortlessly nailing coquettish mannerisms and employing a hilarious come-hither vocal quality, Murphy is magnetizing, fascinating, and eminently likeable." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      Bride and Prejudice (2005)      "It's got moments, it's got performances to recommend, but they still haven't figured out how to create the magic of Bollywood in a form for the US market." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A      Bringing Out the Dead (1999)      "A scalding-hot reminder of Scorsese's talent, and his adoration of Manhattan's otherworldly cosmicity." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A+      Brokeback Mountain (2005)      "The Marlboro Man has reawakened as an archetype fully realized, brimming with ambivalence and complexity." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A+      Brother to Brother (2004)      "May just be the most sophisticated and compelling movie about the lives of black gay men ever made." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B      The Brothers Grimm (2005)      "Bombastic, whimsical, and delicious, The Brothers Grimm is really a comic ghost story wrapped in the postmodern folds of Shakespeare In Love." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Bulgarian Lovers (2003)      "Won't leave you disappointed, but it may leave you hungry for something more substantial." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C      Cast Away (2000)      "Hanks and Zemeckis begin with an intriguing premise...and, by the film's end, smother that premise under a tidal wave of sentimentality and schmaltz." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B+      Catch Me If You Can (2002)      "A frothy, quicksilver entertainment desperate to be liked." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A+      Chicago (2002)      "Dazzling and sugar-sweet, a blast of shallow magnificence that only sex, scandal, and a chorus line of dangerous damsels can deliver." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A-      Chicken Run (2000)      "Excellent visuals, a tenderly told tale, laughs aplenty, and a positive social message to boot." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       C-      The Clearing (2004)      "A thriller nearly devoid of thrills...Despite having great actors and a beautiful visual sensibility, The Clearing offers no foundation to wrap them around." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B      Code 46 (2004)      "On one level it's a science fiction story about cloning...but on another level, it's a complex discussion of authoritarianism in a global economy." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B-      Coffee and Cigarettes (2004)      "The short films in this collection are dreamily affecting curiosities, stilted and just enough off-kilter to keep the viewer attentive." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       A-      Cold Mountain (2003)      "First and foremost, about the ravages of wartime...but framed to an intimate scale, tracing the devastating consequences such violence takes upon individuals." [movie review]      Mixed Reviews       B      Collateral (2004)      "From its classy, crisp opening moments, Collateral bombards the viewer with bold imagery and sounds...we are in Mann country."
